Jeannie, I was able to get the pictures on Pat's Dell computer, and they are nice. I'm pretty darn sure your spider is a common funnel-web spider, the kind found in summer on lawns and low plants with flat webs with obvious funnels into the tunnel where the spider sits -- they have those lines on the cephalothorax and the prominent spinnerets (silk-gland nozzles) that stick out from behind the abdomen -- family Agelenidae, prob. genus Agelenopsis (grass spiders) -- not to be confused with Tegenaria funnel-weavers that are found mostly indoors, in basements or elsewhere in homes or in barns etc. I don't recognize your wasp, but I will check in some insect guides for a possible photographic match.
